Testimonials

As a market research consultancy our company has several projects operational at any one time and a growing payroll. Keeping track of chargeable costs and ensuring systematic compliance is crucial to the running of the business.
Gillian worked with us to improve the accounts coding system to ensure the separation of non chargeable and chargeable costs. She further developed a well organised approach for project coding and tracking as well as managing detailed and timely HMRC compliance requirements.
Gillian’s skill with accounting software has enabled us to invoice clients more efficiently and measure profitability on projects. Her rigorous and flexible approach is most helpful and I would recommend her practice to any business requiring a professional, reliable and responsible bookkeeper who adds value to the business.Paul Leatherdale – Director – Insight Inside Ltd

When my wife and I purchased our business as a service garage in 2000, we turned to Gillian to help us with the bookkeeping system. We needed to understand how our business was progressing long before year end and not have time taken up with accountant’s queries at year end.
Her regular visits supporting our staff has developed our monthly reporting. This allows us to review costs and therefore control them meaning that we have been able to maintain our profit levels. She has ensured that our year end closes promptly and her detailed communication with our accountants take place with minimal consultation with us, resulting in us knowing our tax liability in a timely manner.
Gillian is a down to earth, practical and reliable person. I would not hesitate in recommending her as a bookkeeper.Michael Hoyle – Director – Fox’s of Guildford Ltd

My company is a venue finding agency working with corporate clients to arrange events across the world. Our invoicing was raised on word templates and then entered on a quarterly basis along with the sales receipts on our accounts package. We were not able to review our sales ledger outstanding balances easily or to check on our total invoiced sales commissions.
Gillian recommended an enhancement to our existing SAGE accounts product for two users. She then set up invoice and statement templates specific for our business which works mainly on a commission basis. The documents can now be emailed direct to the venue or client. As part of the process she trained our accounts co-ordinator to raise quotations and convert to invoices. The advancement has ensured direct communication with the accounts departments of the venues and better cash flow, due to tighter credit control.
I am confident in recommending Gillian to provide a specialist and problem solving bookkeeping service.Lida De Souza – Director- De Souza Associates Ltd

As a freight forwarding company we have to deal in different currencies which complicates the bookkeeping and takes up time. Our bank manager put us in touch with Gillian.
Gillian showed us how to enhance our existing bookkeeping system by adding a foreign trader module and setting up a multi-currency facility. We have been able to reduce time spent on bookkeeping and have dealt with the problems of exchange rate gains/losses. It also means we can close our year end promptly and have our accounting records ready for our tax accountants.
Gillian’s experience and systematic approach to our bookkeeping has given us confidence in our monthly reports. I can strongly recommend her bookkeeping service as knowledgeable, flexible and professional.Martin Malone – Director – Martin James International Ltd
